About the Campaign

Where children pray, God listens and acts.

An international day of prayer organized by ACN. This year, in a special way, under the guidance of Our Lady of Fatima:

“In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph.”

Inspired by the message of Our Lady of Fatima and the words of St. Pio of Pietrelcina “The world will change when a million children pray the Rosary” the campaign has become a global movement involving schools, parishes, dioceses, and families from every continent.

WORLDWIDE, OCTOBER 1–7

The children will pray the Rosary together for peace.

The main purpose is to remind us that children’s simple prayers reach God’s heart directly and deeply. That is why when children pray the Holy Rosary, it is of incalculable value in sowing peace and unity in families throughout the world.

“If a million children prayed the Rosary, the world would change.” Padre Pio of Pietrelcina.

How to Get Involved

The campaign runs from October 1 through October 7.

We invite families, educators, parishes, and dioceses to guide the little ones in this great prayer for peace and unity in the world.

​We’re providing you with guided, illustrated resources that are ready to download. Use them at home, in the classroom, or in your community, and involve more people by sharing these materials so that the children’s prayer reaches every corner of the world.
